I went to a place
To learn a craft
To satisfy a curiosity
To test a felt sense
To seek my tribe
I do not know
If these goals I met
But for a brief moment
A belonging
To the words spoken
To a shared love
To the brilliance of light
Cast over the shadows
Present in that room
In these pulsating moments
Is a life lived.
